LOTOS and Gdańsk University of Technology will create ecological asphalts

street surfaces
At the end of November, a research consortium, which includes Gdańsk University of Technology and LOTOS Asfalt, signed an agreement with the National Center for Research and Development to co-finance the ‘Ecological asphalts’ project. Its goal is to create an innovative surface that will contribute to the reduction of air pollution in the area of road lanes. The value of the project is over PLN 5 million.

The ‘Ecological asphalts’ project was created in response to the challenges posed by air pollution in Polish cities. Concerned about the health of their inhabitants, the research consortium has started work on an innovative asphalt pavement modified with a photocatalyst, the use of which is to ultimately reduce the content of harmful substances (NOX, VOC) in the area of road lanes.

Artificial intelligence will help increase the comfort of dentists' work

The dentist
Scientists from the ETI Faculty of Gdańsk University of Technology are participating in the work on creating a device that works with commonly used dental tips for non-invasive, optical control of the inside of the oral cavity when performing a dental procedure. The project is carried out by Master Level Technologies in cooperation with the GUT special purpose vehicle Excento, as well as Bibus Menos and Lambda System.

The project was started in 2020. The final result of the work will be a device in the form of a small webcam cooperating with dental tips. The camera will allow the dentist to observe the tooth closely and in real time during the dental procedure. The device will allow the doctor to work more precisely in hard-to-reach places, which will shorten the time of the procedure and potentially reduce the pain associated with it.

helpers-eng
Gdańsk University of Technology students once again take part in the 12th edition of the nationwide project "HELPERS’ GENERATION "and between December 1 - 15 they register potential donors to the database of the DKMS Foundation.

This year, due to the ban on gatherings, the event could not be held in the university corridors, but it was possible to organize it in a slightly different form. This challenge was undertaken by 2 student DKMS leaders - Paulina Schulz and Julia Zawistowska, who created the so-called "contact network". Almost 30 volunteers were involved in the action, looking for people willing to register among people from their immediate vicinity - friends, family; at work, in the dormitory ... and give them registration kits, of course with all precautions.
